Ways to Give
AFTD was founded in 2002, when Helen-Ann Comstock made a single donation.
Since then, the generosity of AFTD donors and volunteers has enabled us to better meet the needs of all who face FTD, bringing help for the journey and hope for the future.
Donations drive every aspect of AFTD’s work, sustaining and expanding our programs to provide support, education, and resources to people navigating a diagnosis, while advancing research to bring forward treatments and a cure.
There are a number of ways you can support AFTD’s mission, listed below. If you don’t see an option listed, contact our Development team at development@theaftd.org.
Donations make our work possible. Together, we can bring forward a world with compassionate care, effective support, and a future free of FTD.

Planned Giving
Planned giving lets you create a legacy by setting up a donation in the future. The most common type of planned giving is a bequest through a will, but there are other opportunities as well. Visit our Planned Giving Opportunities page for more information.
Named Funds
Named Funds allow you to honor a loved one by establishing a fund in their memory. Visit the Named Funds section of our website to learn more.

Grassroots Events
A fun and engaging way to support AFTD is to create or participate in a Grassroots Event – whether a walk/run, an online campaign, a Food for Thought event, or a fundraiser of your own invention.
